Chapter 453: I must return safely
Xiao Huayong was indeed treated as a guest by Xiao Juesong, eating and living well, obviously only a few years older than Emperor Youning, and Emperor Youning, as the emperor, was more busy than him, but he had white temples and a straight face, because he was seriously ill and his life was short.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have followed Xiao Huayong at this moment, become his knife, and break the game for him.
Because he has no time, this is the only time he can give Emperor Youning a chance to block before he dies, and Xiao Huayong promised him that if Xiao Huayong ascends the throne in the future, he will definitely let him enter the imperial mausoleum and enjoy the worship of the Xiao family.
Falling leaves come back to the roots, and there is no more exciting reason for him than this.
"Titicaca......" Xiao Juesong coughed violently, and coughed up blood on his handkerchief without accident, and his voice was low, "Have you thought about it?" ”
"If I don't want to, can my uncle allow me?" Xiao Huayong asked lightly.
Xiao Juesong, who had been coughing for a while, laughed in a low voice, and the rough laughter sounded extremely mad, "Natural...... Not allowed. ”
"In that case, I don't have a choice, do I?" Xiao Huayong laughed.
"Do you want to ...... Naturally, there is. Xiao Juesong's cloudy eyes looked at Xiao Huayong's gaze with admiration.
Until now, his younger brother who sat on the throne was still under the control of this nephew, and if he wanted to break free from himself, there was no shortage of ways.
"Why bother?" Xiao Hua Yongyun said lightly, "My uncle and I have only joined forces once in this life, why do you have to turn against each other in the end?" Uncle just go according to your plan, and the nephew has his own way of protecting himself. ”
"You're like your daddy." Xiao Juesong praised, he thought of his brother who was the same age.
When he was a child in the palace, Daddy was very different from them, he could humiliate and bully King Qian anytime and anywhere, King Qian was a wise man, he could always escape his pit, and then use all those who could take advantage of him to take revenge.
Never afraid that he would get worse because of this, King Qian did not compromise, did not give in, did not bend his waist, he was arrogant and confident, Xiao Juesong actually hated him very much, and when he heard that he was relegated to the northwest, he gloated.
It's just that he was young at that time, and if he grew up for a few more years, he would never hide in the northwest with the three of them, mother and son.
Xiao Huayong didn't answer, he didn't want to find out about the daddy he didn't have a chance to see, he had the appearance of a daddy in his heart, and he didn't need to know it from others.
Xiao Huayong didn't ask, and it also made Xiao Juesong take a look, the king will never be easily hooked up, follow the thinking of others, and the king will always be the master.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is rumored to have been taken away by Xiao Juesong's people, and a day has passed, and some bad things happened on this day, that is, many unharvested wheat in the nearby villagers was burned, burning the people to cry and cry for their mothers, this is their year's labor, a year's harvest, without these things, there is no hope for this year.
They reported to the government angrily, but before the government could deal with it, someone left a message, to know who burned the wheat, and it would be enough to go to the middle of the river tomorrow.
At the same time, someone sent an invitation to Xiao Changying's hand in the palace, Xiao Changying's face changed greatly after reading it, and he immediately handed it to Emperor Youning, this is not someone else's note, it is Xiao Juesong's handwriting.
Emperor Youning gathered in the middle of the river, otherwise Xiao Huayong would be thrown into the river.
This news can't be hidden, because Emperor Youning must go to the appointment in person, otherwise Xiao Huayong really has a case, the Queen Mother will never give up, so she simply informed the ministers, and the ministers scrambled to dissuade them, hoping that Emperor Youning would not risk his life, but to no avail.
Shen Xihe heard the news, and she personally went to find His Majesty and asked to go together.
Xiao Juesong didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, he didn't ask His Majesty to go alone, and he didn't limit how many people His Majesty could bring.
Therefore, Shen Xihe's request, Emperor Youning nodded and agreed.
got the desired result, Shen Xihe went to find the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was also rushing here, Shen Xihe helped her to the shady pavilion, "Queen Mother, Zhaoning will go with Your Majesty, and the Queen Mother will stay in the palace and wait for us to return." ”
"You're thinking I'm an old bone, dragging you down." The Queen Mother obviously wanted to follow, she didn't want to listen to persuasion.
"Queen Mother, the sun is poisonous, if you go with us, Your Highness will definitely feel guilty and worried when he sees you like this, lest he be distracted." Shen Xihe persuaded softly, "His Royal Highness often says that you are his dearest person, and he can't bear to let you suffer because of him, you must be reluctant for him to blame himself for this, right?" ”
The Queen Mother looked at Shen Xihe, "The good and bad words are all left to you alone, if I question and follow, it is not mine." ”
She was worried about Xiao Huayong, and she also knew that she didn't have any worries when she went, but if the two sides fought, she would become a burden, she held Shen Xihe's hand with both hands, "Zhaoning, you must bring Qilang back safely." ”
Even though she knew that Xiao Huayong had the ability to protect herself, the Queen Mother obviously didn't know what role Xiao Huayong played in this, so she was so worried.
"The Queen Mother can rest assured, Zhaoning will return safely with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Shen Xihe solemnly promised the Queen Mother.
After appeasing the Queen Mother, Shen Xihe sent her back to the palace and returned to her residence, she also prepared some things, and instructed Biyu and others to stay and protect the Queen Mother, she only brought pearls and Moyu.
The matter outside the palace did not reach the palace, and the local officials all knew that the prince was missing, and they also knew that His Majesty had just been assassinated, and the palace was when everyone was silent, and the burning of the wheat field was not a particularly life-threatening matter, and they also wanted to report it to the palace after it was cracked, so as to atone for the crime.
The time of the meeting was released by Xiao Juesong, and the time of Emperor Youning was earlier than the time that the people got, and the people were strictly told that if they came early, they would never lose a penny, and if they came on time, they would naturally lose his money.
Money is important, and the people in the village are staring at each other, for fear that someone will not behave and cause them to lose compensation.
Banhe is a river not far from the palace, the river is extremely wide, and it flows into the Yellow River, the turbulent flow is rapid, and the river water is yellow.
There is a loose suspension bridge in the place where Xiao Juesong agreed, and the opposite side of the river bank is a small mountain town, which is usually not connected with the outside, and this suspension bridge is unattended, and the appearance of disrepair is swaying on the river surface, like a swing, which makes people feel uneasy.
Emperor Youning didn't bring many people, the army was hidden in the trees behind him, he brought Xiao Changqing's brothers and Shen Xihe, who was going to follow, plus the entourage he brought, but a dozen or so people stood at one end of the suspension bridge.
As soon as they stood still, people appeared at the other end of the suspension bridge, Xiao Huayong who was tied up, Xiao Juesong who was pushed and embraced, and the two brothers who had been separated for 20 years, looked at each other swayingly, and the eyes of all places were sharp.
